I find Vivian Maier’s work to be truly fascinating. Her life story is so surreal. And to think her photographs were found in boxes at a jumble sale, forgotten, discarded; the public only seeing her work after her death. Visit her website to see the work of a great street photographer. I can’t always sketch from real-life so I use her work to practice on. http://www.vivianmaier.com/

Welcome!

My name is David Meldrum, I live in Stockholm, Sweden. I have just given up my day job and became a full-time artist.

It was February 2012 when I painted my first watercolour and found it fascinating. The year before that I had started drawing again 30 years after leaving art college back in 1981. I am hopelessly addicted to art now and spend everyday trying to improve my skills. I am very curious to know how good I can become and what I can achieve.
